BLESSINGS FROM THE HOLLOW PART 2

Last year in March, I showed a picture of a completed quilt top called "Blessings From the Hollow". You can read about it here. Mary from Quilt Hollow made the original quilt that is in a book by Kim Brackett. The fabric is from a Moda line called "Blessings" and designed by Jan Patek. I liked the fabrics and I liked the design, so I chose to make the same quilt. Mary machine quilted it for me several months ago. All it needed was binding. I was busy with other projects at the time and ended up putting the quilt in the sewing room closet. Finally, I got it out and attached binding for a finished quilt.

I have been doing lots of applique and will share the blocks with you in another post. I pulled a UFO out of the closet last night that needs additional applique. That is what I will be working on this afternoon. Always something to keep me busy stitching and happy. Stop back in a day or two to see my progress.

Another beautiful quilt! I feel the same way - there are always something to stitch keeping me happy! I even feel dilemma between so many what I want to stitch the next. And of course, your appliqué blocks and quilts are so inviting. Enjoy your afternoon!
